WARNINGS
The system does not replace theparking brake. When you leave yourvehicle, always apply the parking brake.Failure to leave your vehicle securely parkedmay lead to a crash or injury. See ElectricParking Brake (page 200).
You must remain in your vehicle whenthe system turns on. At all times, youare responsible for controlling your vehicle,supervising the system and intervening, ifrequired. Failure to take care may result inthe loss of control of your vehicle, seriouspersonal injury or death.
The system will turn off if a malfunctionis apparent or if you rev the engineexcessively. Failure to take care may resultin the loss of control of your vehicle, seriouspersonal injury or death.
The system makes it easier to pull awaywhen your vehicle is on a slope without theneed to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, your vehicleremains stationary on the slope for two tothree seconds after you release the brakepedal. This allows time to move your footfrom the brake to the accelerator pedal. Thesystem releases the brakes automaticallyonce the engine has developed sufficienttorque to prevent your vehicle from rollingdown the slope. This is an advantage whenpulling away on a slope, for example from acar park ramp, traffic lights or when reversinguphill into a parking space.
Note:The system only functions when youbring your vehicle to a complete standstill inan uphill gear (for example, drive (D) whenfacing uphill or reverse (R) when facingdownhill).
Note:There is no warning light to indicatethe system is either on or off.
Using Hill Start Assist

2. If the sensors detect that your vehicle ison a slope, the system activatesautomatically.
3. When you remove your foot from thebrake pedal, your vehicle remains on theslope without rolling away for about twoto three seconds. This hold timeautomatically extends if you are in theprocess of driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. Thesystem releases the brakes automatically.
Note:When you remove your foot from thebrake pedal and press the pedal again whenthe system is active, you will experiencesignificantly reduced brake pedal travel. Thisis normal.

WARNING
When a wheel is installed, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting surfaces of the wheel or thesurface of the wheel hub, brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure that any fasteners that attach the rotor to thehub are secured so they do not interfere with the mounting surfaces of the wheel.
